John Garziglia’s radio and television broadcast station clients are investing in a tenacious, industry-knowledgeable counselor who has a passion for broadcasting. A leading Washington, DC broadcast station lawyer, John has been selected for inclusion in Best Lawyers in America’s 2018 list.

John’s broadcast station clients range from the largest publically traded entities to incredibly successful small-market broadcasters. Each client calls on John for his experience obtained through managerial work in the industry, service at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and in-depth assistance to broadcast stations for more than 30 years.

John frequently writes insightful articles for broadcast station trade publications. He is routinely quoted in magazine and newspaper articles on radio and television legal issues, and speaks on cutting-edge broadcasting topics at state and national broadcaster meetings.

Whether it is transactional negotiations for broadcast station mergers or acquisitions, securing of financing, FCC auctions of new frequencies, license renewals, facility upgrades, licensing or regulatory compliance, John’s goal is to bring significant value to his clients’ endeavors.
